Product Designer
Arda is seeking senior product designers to help build the future of manufacturing in the USA. If you’re looking to solve hard problems that matter, own end-to-end workflows, and ship high-quality software that will define how things get made, we’d love to meet you! BLUF Great role for an experienced (4+ years) product designer wanting to take on complex design challenges in a fast-paced startup environment. Should be able to own hard design problems independently at a high quality bar, bring systems thinking across design system + platform IA, and comfortable shipping in an AI-native, agentic workflow. Could be a designer from a company like Palantir, a high-velocity B2B/enterprise startup, or a similar environment where they've shipped software fast and grown quickly. Probably not: an agency designer, a pure-visual/brand designer, or an [exclusively] consumer/mobile app designer. Expected Activities This hire will be expected to engage flexibly across initiatives. Project execution — own the day-to-day of executing projects across feature sets, especially the challenging design problems, at a high quality bar with limited oversight. Design system management — contribute to maintaining and extending our component library (both atoms and bits), and help scale agentic design — rules, skills, etc. — for agents building Arda features. Platform design — information architecture, core patterns, and tending to the Arda design garden as a whole so individual features strengthen the system rather than fragment it. Ship in code — Arda designers work in an agentic, AI-native way and are comfortable shipping code. Not expected to always own end-to-end implementation, but should be fluent enough to prototype in code and contribute production changes rather than handing off static mocks. Characteristics SF or NYC-based — should be willing to travel a bit and interested in getting onsite, but no more than ~10% High agency / thrives with limited oversight — can be handed a hard, underspecified problem and drive it to a high-quality shipped outcome without close direction. Strong interaction design — Arda is tricky software with many surfaces and patterns; handles that gracefully with attention to state, flow, and edge cases. Systems thinking — understands how a design system and platform IA hold together, and designs individual features so they reinforce the whole. Strong taste and quality bar — sweats the details that make dense enterprise software feel clear and inevitable rather than complicated. Comfort with ambiguity — energized rather than stalled by open-ended, fast-moving problem spaces. Appetite to grow — we’re in a brave new design world, and we’ll need someone willing to reinvent their processes, workflow, etc. to accommodate an agentic world Potential backgrounds Product designer at a high-velocity B2B/enterprise startup who's owned complex, stateful surfaces end to end Palantir (or similar) designer used to shipping dense enterprise software fast, wanting more ownership Probably not: agency designer, pure-visual/brand designer, or consumer/mobile app designer Interview process Round 1 Pierce 30 min behavioral screen Pierce 1 hr portfolio review Round 2 Alex 1 hr behavioral screen 2-day work trial Work trial that will revolve around a scoped but ambiguous design challenge Arda is seeking senior product designers to help build the future of manufacturing in the USA.

Partnering with Trust in SODA, they leveraged a dedicated team of five recruiters. This collaboration resulted in over 100 shortlisted candidates, 45 interviews, and 23 successful placements within the tight two-month timeframe.

ONDA

CV to Interview Ratio

Founded in 2022, Onda is committed to providing customers with simpler and more effective cyber insurance coverage in the face of increasingly sophisticated threats.

Having previously worked with Trust in SODA’s consultants at a previous organisation, Onda’s hiring manager was confident in the value we could bring and chose to engage us for a new mandate.

Onda set an exceptionally high bar for candidate quality and needed a partner who could deliver critical hires in a tight timeframe, all while competing with other projects in the market.

We partnered with Onda on an exclusive basis, enabling us to carry out a thorough search across our community networks and the broader market.

With regular catchups alongside the TA team, we quickly aligned on the role requirements, including candidate profiles and culture fit.

By leaning on a deep understanding of Onda’s business imperatives, we successfully secured the two critical hires under demanding market conditions.

Trust in SODA has provided great candidates for our company as we start up here in Ireland. It’s been our single source of recruitment and we wouldn’t be where we are today without the hard work put in by the team.’ - VP of Engineering, Onda

QUANTSPARK

QuantSpark are a strategic analytics and AI consultancy that supercharges its clients’ operating models with advanced technology and bespoke, data-driven products.

After being recommended to QuantSpark by a previous customer, Trust in SODA was engaged alongside competing agencies to deliver a critical leadership role; however, due to SODA’s fast provision of high-quality profiles, the team was soon retained exclusively.

QuantSpark were looking for a blend of deep technical expertise and management experience, and they were operating inside strict budget parameters.

SODA conducted cultural interviews, competitor analysis, market mapping, and technical testing to ensure the right fit for the role, ultimately filling the position on time and in budget.

SODA provided constant communication and flexibility. Our business has a number of nuances that make recruitment challenging, and the SODA team constantly worked with us to ensure they were providing the best possible service. Not only from a client POV but based on candidate feedback, it was clear that SODA provides a thoughtful candidate experience. The team was flexible on fees and is looking for a long-term relationship. Our business does not typically work with agencies, and I'd be keen to partner with them again on an as-needed basis.
